Answer:
The mean of the tap water boiling point is about 2 degrees Celsius less than the mean of the salt water temperature.
Step-by-step explanation:
Boiling point is the temperature at which a liquid boils or changes from liquid form to gaseous form. Water has a boiling point of 100 degrees Celsius.
Boiling point of water depends on atmospheric pressure which changes according to the height above sea level of a place.
Boiling point can also change depending on the purity of water.Water that has impurities such as salt will have a slightly higher boiling temperature.
The mean of the tap water boiling point is about 2 degrees Celsius less than the mean of the salt water temperature.
It is to insure the experiment does not have bias.
Answer:
1 5/12
Step-by-step explanation:
12 1/3 - 10 11/12
We need to get a common denominator of 12
12 1/3 * 4/4 - 10 11/12
12 4/12 - 10 11/12
We need to borrow from the 12 (the whole number) because the 2nd fraction is bigger than the first
12 becomes 11 and the 1 becomes 12/12
11+ (12/12 + 4/12) - 10 11/12
11 16/12 - 10 11/12
Subtract the whole numbers
11-10 =1
Subtract the fractions
16/12 - 11 /12 = 5 /12
We are left with 1 5/12
